FINE STRUCTURE OF THE BOUNDARY TISSUE OF THE EPIDIDYMAL DUCT OF THE DOG (Canis familiaris, L.)

The boundary tissue of the dog epididymal duct showed concentric lamellae of mioconnective tissue in which were observed elongated contractile cells, collagen, fibroblasts, fibrocytes, mast cells and amyelinic nerve fibers. This boundary tissue forms the periductal stroma and duct interstitium of the epididymis. The structure is described and compared with that of other mammals.
